Barcelona hosted its women’s polo team on Thursday Olympiakouahead of the women’s polo Champions League final-4, 20-21/4, with the “red and whites” aiming to win their fourth trophy in the top European club competition.
His female athletes Dimitris Kravaritis have to face three Spanish teams, three powerful “hosts”, with the Greek team facing at 15:00 on Saturday the Mataro in the first semi-final, while in the second semi-final Sabadell and Saint-Andreu will compete, with Apases considered capable of winning the prestigious trophy, which for the Piraeus women will be the fourth in the institution.
Mataro is the team that deprived the Greek doubles of last year’s titlewhen he eliminated them in the semi-final and finally lost in the final to Sabadel, so the Kravaritis players want to take revenge on their powerful rival, who theoretically in the eyes of most experts seems to be the undisputed favorite, but maybe not so…
